Great news! Guess it goes to show that he and his agent were waiting to see if a trade to a preferred team would materialize. I guess that preferred team was the Clippers. Once that possibility fell through, he immediately signed the deal. Thus, his intentions all along seemed to have been to go to the Clips. It didn't work, so now he runs and signs the deal before something happens to him that would cause the offer to be pulled. In the end, I don't blame the guy for looking into his options. I have considered job transfers that might have moved me back to NOLA, so it's all good!

Congratualtions all New Orleans fans- This is a great day for the Hornets- I wish I could have enjoyed such good times while they were here- it's looks like George and Ray have learned their lesson and the Hornets will be a competitive team as long as Baron is healthy. You guys should be really excited.

With the third pick in the 2006 NBA Draft the Charlotte Bobcats select Rudy Gay..........

Thanks C-J! I know I am excited and can't wait for the tipoff. Its a shame for true fans like you C-J in what happened there. But, you can still follow them this year. It should be great and alot of fun to watch.

Thanks. Maybe you are right, but I am thinking that George and Ray have an improved cash flow in NOLA and they are trying to get off on the right foot by keeping their star player and making an immediate impact in the NBA for NOLA fans. Thanks, again.

"I'm looking forward to starting a new winning tradition here in New Orleans," said Davis. "We have a great team and a great chance to build on our success, so I hope the fans and the city are as excited as I am."

From the article that spongey linked to...

Baron Davis is the real "star QB" in New Orleans. He needs to give Mr. Brooks a few lessons in public relations.

So he was actually here. Before, no one could really find him (besides b-ball tournaments). What a difference a day makes. Welcome BD. How about stopping by at NOH.com and giving me and say-what an exclusive to post for the board members?

I'll take some crow too. I really did not believe he would EVER re-sign. Don't get me wrong, I am happy he did, but I still believe he would have rathered get the max in LA, NY or CHI. Some doors closed on him and he had 84 million reasons to sign the deal here. This was the best end case scenario in this entire situation for us. Now practice them damn FTs and lets win a championship. Any less than the NBA trophy and I'll chase them out of town.
